In the current beta build once you defeat Saragosa you have to find your own way to get back down to the ground. Either use slowfall like abilities, hearth, or jump to your death and resurrect on the ground.

Comment by SubjectV

Don't overlook the quest text - once you're ready, talk to Keristrasza and tell her you're ready to face Saragosa. She will then port you up to Saragosa's platform.

Don't be afraid when you see Saragosa land as a giant level 73 elite dragon - she quickly shrinks and is an easy kill.

Comment by Gibsonlp39

After porting to the platform and defeating Saragosa use the torch again and turn in the quest. After turning in the quest talk to Keristrasza one more time and there will be an option for her to port you back to the Coldarra camp.

Comment by Aranthar

To summon her, and return from her ledge, use the Augemented Arcane Prison you received earlier.

Comment by FinalDragoon

Don't die when doing this quest as there's no way to reach your body....

Comment by constantcow

yeah watch out on this quest. although it looks like you may be able to get to your corpse from the elevator platform below you cannot, you have to spirit res. so keep in mind every time someone dies up there they pay a lot of gold...untill blizz does something about that.

wowhead says the quest is Alliance only. however im able to pick it up as horde...

is this a wowhead or a wow bug?

edit: guess its a wowhead bug, i just did it.

Comment by teddygrahamscg

Don't waste your flare if someone else already has Keristrasza summoned. Wait for them to fly away and then use your flare.

Comment by Uennie

This quest appears to be bugged in more ways than one. If you go up there when someone else is about to, there could be problems. I went up when a mage was there and he used not only one of my charges to summon the Consort, but he took my teleport back. I had to die and spirit res to get off the platform since my hearth was on CD, and I couldn't get a ghetto hearth.

Completing the rest of the chain with sickness isn't a big deal, there's no fighting or anything involved. Most people said that they still didn't get a completion after she was frozen, but mine popped up almost as soon as we landed and she told me to flee. It's said that if it's bugged like that for you, to just do it twice.

Comment by AnaluKensai

She doesn't spawn herself. You summon her with your Prison Key. You can talk to her if someone else had summoned her recently, though. That's why you're seeing her at random spots.

Make sure you wait a little while before starting each part of this quest if someone had done it right before you. It bugs if there are two versions of her up at once and you'll have to do it again.

Comment by Sarijy

By the way, to actually arrive and FACE saragosa you summon Keristrasza and select the "I'm ready to face Saragosa" option.You want to do this at the western cave where you took the reading on an earlier quest.You then use the magic essence looking item which summons the 73 elite dragon saragosa, who then turns into a 73 human female. She fires a few frostfire bolts and from what I can see, is REALLY good at dying.You get off of saragosa's landing by summoning keri and turning in the quest, then you get another quest to talk to an NPC at Transitus Shield. You talk to her one last time and select the "I'm done here, please return me to Transitus Shield" option.Garts, the quest is done.

Comment by aborgolotto

Talk to Keristrasza right after u get the quest, and have her port u to the platform.

Comment by jynxycat

All you have to do is use the Arcane Power Focus after killing Saragosa, and Keristrasza will accept your quest, then offer to teleport you back.

Comment by Ssateneth

How the heck do you get down?

EDIT: Never mind... Summon her again, turn in the quest, and accept the new one and she'll take you down.

Comment by Miwna

Also gives 250 rep with The Wyrmrest Accord.

Comment by OrangeSummer

If you missed it like I did, you were given an item to summon Keristrasza so check your bags and summon her to you (similar to the Archmage Vargoth's Staff in Netherstorm).

When you're ready to fight, talk to the summoned NPC again and select the option. She will then port you up to a platform in the sky. Now use the Arcane Power Focus quest item you received, a crystal will appear in the middle of the platform and the dragon will land.

After you kill Saragosa, loot and summon Keristrasza again. Select the option and she'll take you back down to the ground. Near one of the large platforms in the zone there is an opening that leads to the Nexus raid instance on the surface. (Coords 25,23.)

You've been given a flare so shoot it off when you arrive at the destination. Keristrasza will fly down and speak to you. Stand nearby and let her do her thing and then you both will fly away. You must clear Nexus to complete the final quest in the chain.

Edit: SMV --> Netherstorm

Comment by Zaan3

actually, if u summon the questgiver whilst on the platform & turn in the quest, u can talk to her again & get a port back down

Comment by alphamale

FYI:

Don't die while doing this quest. Me and a Human DK were up there and he decided to gank me as I got the tap on Saragosa...managed to kill her, Kill him but as he was Unholy his Ghoul Form Reincarnate thing killed me.

Wasn't able to loot the mob...and you can't get teleported back up there.

Comment by JamieK

I deleted the quest, couldn't be asked to do such a poorly done quest.

It wouldn't have been so bad if you could summon the #$%^& anywhere, but nope....so quest deleted.

Comment by evankimori

Actually there is a way down:

Complete the chains at the Transitus Shield to get Augmented Arcane Prison. Don't start THIS part until you have that item. Click on the item link to see the chain quest involved to get it.

Now do the quest like Drelf stated with those 6 steps, defeat Saragosa and then use the Arcane Prison to summon Keri to you. Complete the quest dialogue and she'll have a new option to teleport you back Transitus Shield.

EDIT: OH! One more thing! Don't talk to her when on a mount, shapeshifted (that means you Moonkin, Bear and Cat) or while in Shadow Form. For some reason she won't teleport you unless you are in original caster form.

Comment by Snigglefritz

After you pick up Saragosa's Corpse and BEFORE accepting the quest from the summoned quest giver, you can summon Saragosa again,,,At Level 71, I killed her 10 times and getting 1083XP per kill, but it is rather boring,,,:)

Comment by 00Poc00

Found this quest rather annoying.. Had just taken up enchanting on an alt and had some Greater Mystic Essence in my bags, and ofc, the Power Focus shares the same icon :P

So just a warning, if you can't find the item, thats probably why ;)

Comment by Eugeneslipped

Is this quest bugged at the moment? I keep talking to Keristrasza and accepting the summon... but as she casts Teleport, it constantly fails at the end, (as in, the spellbar turns red and says "Failed".

I abandoned and then re-accepted.. this time it didn't fail, but SHE teleported and I did not.

What the heck?

EDIT: Seemed to work this time.The first few times I tried, I was in the Transitius Shield (or w/e it is called), but the time it worked, I was just in a random spot in Coldarra about 200 feet away.

It's possible the quest is bugged if you use it within the shield?

Comment by Kaliopae

Make sure you're *really* close to Keristrasza when she casts teleport or it wont work. I had to be practically on top of her.

Comment by Latias714

I as able to levitate off the platform all the way to the entrance of the transitus shield. I know you can just port down, but flying through the air with levitate is just so fun.

Comment by t21wolves

Keristraza was ported away before I could talk to her for a port...how do I finish this quest! Any ideas?

Comment by NiLon

If you are mounted and ask for teleport NPC will just vanish. So be sure you aren't mounted before you ask for teleport.

Comment by Benegesserit

LOL if you talk to her while on Sara's platform she just teleports you in place.

Comment by GrifiDK

use this in your backpack to get to saragosa´s landing and right clik on the person to transport to sargosa´s landing plads. and use to complete

Comment by bfmchaindog

As many people are still fleshing out their WotLK / Northrend content in this starting zone, or even trying to wrangle some The Wyrmrest Accord reputation, I felt this mini-guide would be extremely helpful to new and experienced players alike. It should be noted that the majority of these quests count towards Nothing Boring About Borean which also leads one towards . =^)

Here it appears this chain ends, but actually continues on in a 2nd chain. If you lose your Augmented Arcane Prison at any time, speak to Raelorasz at the Transitus Shield for a free replacement.*Player note: Just be certain that it wasn't placed in the bank during a side trip, as there aren't any banks within a large portion of this zone (including the Hold). If he doesn't automagically give you the option to replace it, try clicking the "What is the cause of this conflict?" to bring it up.*

Keristrasza allows players to speak to her again to continue the chain.*Player note: If she somehow gets lost or the player drops the quest, it is best advised to go just outside of the Shield and summon her for each next quest, as other locations sometimes quest error or are incorrect areas.*

Bait and Switch has players collect 10 Crystallized Mana Shards (which are the pink crystal plants all over Coldarra) to make bait to beat his blue dragon guardian, Saragosa human form / Saragosa (dragon non-quest form).Pretty self-explanatory, just turn them in when done, any extras can be safely deleted.

Raelorasz then wants players to start Springing the Trap by using Raelorasz' Spark to light a signal fire on some bundles of wood to the northwest of the Nexus at coords 25.5, 22.*Player note still valid by user beachboy: 1. Open your map. Move your character so that the arrow representing your position is directly above the "N" and to the left of "The" in "The Nexus" on the map. The bundle of wood you have to light is outside, in the snow.2. Light the bundle of wood using the item provided to you, Raelorasz' Spark.3. Take your hands off your keyboard and mouse, sit back, and enjoy the show. After a few minutes of NPC dialog and a scene where you ride a dragon, you should complete the quest. You do not have to do ANYTHING.4. Turn in the quest at Transitus Shield.*

These achievements do not include those available for exploration, holidays, skills, professions, The Oculus, The Eye of Eternity, or the quest chain from Dragonblight. All research, testing, cross-research, linkages, and typographical errors are mine. If someone sees any mistakes or patch changes, please reply and I will eventually update it (ratings checked monthly). Thank you! =^)

Comment by WokkaD

I know this is simple, but : Remember to use the item to summon Saragosa

Comment by Aleflusher

If you're having trouble finding Saragosa's landing, it is the second-highest floating platform to the NW of the Nexus. Coordinates: 21.60, 22.56
